Could you please explain more explicitly what you are trying to do? It is very confusing to me, since <uses-library> is a purely Java language thing, but you are talking a lot about .so and JNI neither of which is really related.
For what its worth, if you don't require a library, use android:required="false" in your uses-library. Then you can use the normal Java tricks to not crash if the library symbols are not in your class loader.
